How is it milking the name?

It is Jeremy, James and Richard cocking about in cars in front of an audience. It literally is TopGear, live.

Perhaps, but as Ruthi mentioned once, if you don't milk, the cow gets uncomfortable. They're doing the TG name a favor by milking it.

I pray to God, Allah, Zeus, Vishnu, Tom Cruise, Yahweh, or anybody who will listen that Top Gear comes to Seattle (more realistic than Portland). I don't feel like flying to LA or NY.... but that's where the shows will probably be images/smilies/sad.gif



Andy I challenge you to break from the mold! Screw the big cities! Come to the pacNW where the last day of August was 66 and raining, you will feel at home!

Is it me or is that the tank that Fifth Gear used once? Although it was white when Fifth Gear used it.

Why would they waste their time in Sydney? Melbourne is a far better place.
